!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status message.

I am also getting this error as well.

i am using xorg-x11-6.8.1.901

Fixed in cvs, compiles fine, runs fine :).

Still broken.

configure: error: cannot find X11 development files

Bleh, I re-updated the X11 logic, hopefully it will work now...  Installed
beautifully for me (but it will break for everyone else most certainly :P).

Works now.  Thankya.
